Cosmic Awareness - 1998 04 - soul hell heaven karma higher self taboo sex silver religion psychology

Magazine Overview

This issue of "Revelations of Awareness: The Cosmic Newsletter" (Issue No. 498, dated January 25, 1998) marks the publication's 26th anniversary. The cover prominently features a call for personal questions to illustrate universal principles of enlightenment. The main themes explored in this issue revolve around spiritual growth, consciousness, karma, and the influence of external energies.

The Religious Taboos Against Sex

This section addresses the historical religious taboos surrounding sex, positing that their primary purposes were to increase procreation and to keep children within family structures, thereby maintaining religious control. The Awareness suggests that while these taboos created fear and guilt, they also made sex more enticing. The two core reasons identified for the sexual taboo are: 1) to focus consciousness on sex for population growth, and 2) to prevent children from becoming castaways by ensuring they were raised within families and religions.

Conserving Sexual Energy Before Sports Events

This part of the discussion touches upon the conservation of sexual energy, noting that depleting it can weaken an individual's strength and energy. It is common practice in sports to avoid sexual activity before a contest to maintain high energy levels. The Awareness explains that sexual energy can make entities more assertive and aggressive, and its depletion can lead to a more passive state. Conversely, sexual release can be beneficial for creative and intellectual pursuits that require a relaxed state of mind. The key is to conserve energy when assertiveness is needed and to release it when a more sensitive and relaxed demeanor is beneficial.

The Wheel of Karma: Is There Ever Any Relief?

This section addresses a question about escaping the cycle of karma and reincarnation. The Awareness explains that balancing negative karma with good karma is crucial. Good karma can nullify negative karma, allowing for other experiences and the possibility of repaying karmic debts later or having others who owe karma to you pay off your debts.

Do Universal Vibrations, Sound and Light Go With All Entities at all Times?

This section explores the concept of universal vibrations, sound, and light being present with all souls. The Awareness uses the analogy of a radio to explain that individuals are often attuned to only a narrow band of frequencies, limiting their experience. It suggests that by visualizing desired outcomes and attuning to harmonious feelings, one can change their frequency and explore higher vibrations. This process requires patience and consistent effort, akin to training a muscle, to become comfortable with new frequencies.

Just What Is That State Called "Enlightenment?"

Enlightenment is described as occurring in visitations, which may be brief but can become more frequent with attunement. It is likened to the experience of observing oneself observing, which provides a unique perception of self and reality. This self-observation can lead to profound insights and a different perspective on life, creating lasting memories.

How Do We Maintain Balance With All the Intrusions of Today's Society?

Maintaining balance amidst societal distractions is achieved through focusing on the love and appreciation experienced in relationships and life's beauty. These sensitive qualities feed the soul and remain with the entity as they transition to other dimensions. The Awareness emphasizes that while material reality is largely distraction, the 1% of loving expression creates permanence.

How Can We Step Out of the Agenda of Others Who Control Us?

To step out of external agendas, entities are advised to practice deep observation and discernment. Instead of immediately reacting to suggestions or urgencies, one should look deeply to understand the situation. This heightened awareness leads to appropriate action without the need for conscious decision-making.

Is Heaven Moving Toward Us Rather Than Us Moving Toward Heaven?

This section suggests that the "Kingdom of Heaven is Within." Instead of actively pursuing heaven, one should be receptive and draw it inward. The Awareness cautions against projecting preconceived notions of heaven, such as those influenced by materialistic ideals, and encourages discovering its true nature within.

He Feels His Higher Self is Being Unfair at Times

This section addresses the feeling that the Higher Self is unfair. The Awareness explains that fairness is subjective and that the Higher Self operates with a broader perspective, balancing things that individuals may not recognize need balancing. It suggests that experiences, even difficult ones, may be necessary for soul growth and are not necessarily karmic.

He's Having an Extreme Feeling of Gratitude

An example is given of an individual experiencing intense gratitude for everyday things, like garbage collection. This heightened sense of appreciation is linked to the influence of the Photon Belt, which is expected to increase in prevalence. The Awareness suggests that this experience of gratitude brings peace, joy, and security.

A Schedule of When the Photon Energies Will be Around

The Photon Energies are described as increasing in influence, particularly through September 1996, with a resurgence in early 1997 and continuing through 2006-07. They are expected to be fully experienced by 2012-2013, marking a significant shift in consciousness.

Cosmic Consciousness is Coming to This Plane For All to Enjoy

The advent of Cosmic Consciousness is described as a subtle, quiet, and individual experience, not a dramatic event. It will lead to increased awareness and appreciation, transforming consciousness for all entities.

Why Did Colloidal Silver Stop Hand Tremors?

Colloidal silver is said to help conduct electrical energies in the body, balancing and harmonizing energy levels. It is suggested that tremors can be caused by disruptions in the electrical body and the Odic Force, and colloidal silver assists in resolving these issues.

Departed Spirit Returns to Reassure Loved One

This phenomenon is becoming more common due to the closing of proximity between dimensions, facilitated by the Photon Energies. These energies are altering the third-dimensional world, making matter more etheric and potentially shifting the Earth into a different dimension.

The Mystery of the Stone Urns in Laos

The stone urns in Laos are believed to be from an ancient civilization with advanced extraterrestrial technology, possibly dating back to the Lemurian culture (around 30,000 years ago). They were likely used for creating elixirs, though later they served as storage for various substances, including less noble drinks and even blood.

How to Get Used to the Photon Energies

Adapting to the Photon Energies, which are of a higher frequency, may cause temporary discomfort. Entities are advised to find ways to comfort themselves, such as warm baths or showers, and drinking colloidal silver water can also be beneficial for psychological nervousness.

The Recent Change in Focus

This section explains a shift in focus from mass consciousness issues to individual experiences and personal questions. This change is intended to facilitate a deeper understanding of universal principles and the restoration of personal power. The Awareness emphasizes the growing receptivity of human beings to this mission.

Paul Shockley's Channelings: Has it Helped Entities to Transcend Darkness and Negativity?

Cosmic Awareness affirms that Paul Shockley's channeling has significantly contributed to helping members witness and transcend negativity by focusing on universal principles, individual empowerment, and awareness of potential manipulation.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are spiritual growth, consciousness, the nature of reality, and the influence of unseen forces and energies. The editorial stance, as conveyed by Cosmic Awareness, encourages personal exploration, discernment, and attunement to higher frequencies. There is a consistent emphasis on individual empowerment and the idea that true understanding and fulfillment come from within. The publication also highlights the role of technology and new energies, like the Photon Energies, in human evolution and the shift towards a more conscious existence.

This issue of CAC General Reading, dated January 25, 1998, issue #36, focuses on transcending negativity and achieving spiritual enlightenment. The publication, from Cosmic Awareness Communications, presents insights and answers to reader questions, guided by Cosmic Awareness.

Transcending Dark Negativities

The primary theme addresses how to overcome future dark negativities. Cosmic Awareness suggests that 'transcending the darkness' is more accurately described as eliminating the unnecessary creation of such darkness. This reframes the issue as an internal process, refocusing energy and creative power back within the individual. It highlights that negative experiences arise when individuals acquiesce their power to external manipulative forces, perpetuating illusions of external control. The process involves dismantling existing belief structures that create misery and then erecting new ones that facilitate the spirit and restore creative power. The ultimate goal is to move from the illusion of external control to the reality of individual creative capacity and mass consciousness that empowers, rather than diminishes, the individual.

Lessons of Enlightenment and Personal Transformation

The issue features an account from Rasma Kidd, who has studied the 'Lessons of Enlightenment.' She describes experiencing bliss, light, and love, feeling released from a 'prison' and no longer needing to identify with her earthly personality. She notes a profound sense of joy, love, and peace, with previous bothersome issues losing their intensity. Rasma also discusses her experience with the 'Great White Light,' noting that while she can no longer access it externally, she has discovered a tiny point of light within each of her body's cells, which she can now direct. This shift has led her to believe her mind can learn mathematics, as it's no longer busy running her life.

Cosmic Awareness confirms that Rasma's experience is universal, representing the human birthright of freedom and the unfolding of life with delight and unexpected experiences. The lessons are described as facilitating a tremendous feeling of bliss, excitement, and curiosity, pointing to a clear connection between beliefs, energy, and events.

Understanding Pleasure and Pain Principles

A question is raised about individuals who derive pleasure from darker activities like S&M or torture, questioning the pleasure/pain principle. Cosmic Awareness explains that the basic hedonic principle has lost its spiritual respect due to emotions being profoundly influenced by belief structures. It emphasizes that only Spirit can be the judge, and the feeling system communicates ideas that either perpetuate Spirit (positive emotion) or frustrate it (negative emotion). The original intent of the system is for the mind, body, and spirit to unite, but limitations and beliefs can cause the mind to operate independently, leading to negative experiences.

The Alchemy of Human Emotion and Manifestation

Another section addresses the manifestation of 'miracles,' like those attributed to Jesus or Sai Baba, and its connection to the Cosmic Law of the Vacuum. Cosmic Awareness explains that this is a technique for manipulating spiritual Will Energy. It suggests that while creating a specific vacuum can attract desired outcomes, mass consciousness has often provided belief structures that eliminate the room for individual creativity. The spiritual energy of human emotion is presented as the 'juice' to alchemize desired events. Understanding the difference between fear-based and joy-based perspectives is crucial, as joy-based perspectives assume belief structures that are consciously added and facilitate Spirit, leading to positive emotions.

The Role of the Body and Spirit

Cosmic Awareness discusses the intricate relationship between mind, body, and spirit. When the mind is disconnected from spirit due to limitations and beliefs, it can lead to negative experiences. The body, however, retains a self-preservationary response to protect the physical vehicle, even when the mind is not apprised of the message. This can lead to misattributing physical urges and emotional states to thoughts, beliefs, and activities that are not spiritually fulfilling.

Sexual Dominance and Belief Systems

In the context of sexual dominance, it's suggested that an entanglement of frustrated freedom and control needs, along with confusion over connection needs, can manifest as frustrated energy. This energy can find vicarious fulfillment through dominating others. These perversions of the emotional system often spring from belief structures placed within the mind due to faulty information or misinterpreted experiences, where the spiritual adjudicator has been denied.

The Purpose of the Soul in an Earth Body

Regarding the purpose of the soul taking on an Earth body, Cosmic Awareness states it is to expand Universal Consciousness. Earthly experiences are designed by each embodied spirit to create unique and creative ways to design experiences that delight and evolve consciousness. The goal is to restore the connection between mind and spirit, transforming mass consciousness and eliminating negativity. This process aims to restore the expanse and creative joyous experience aligned with Universal Intention.

The Kobe Earthquake and Trauma

A letter from Barbara Cooney, who experienced the 1995 Kobe earthquake, prompts a discussion on trauma. Cosmic Awareness suggests that the earthquake was symptomatic of repressed Will Energy within the community and culture, where the belief system subordinates individual needs to societal ones. This repression of individual Will Energy, without understanding dissonant feelings, leads to frustrated energy manifesting as social, individual, and physical phenomena. The degree of catastrophe is related to the degree of wisdom that can be mined from the experience, particularly by comparing intentions with outcomes and identifying limiting beliefs.

Cosmic Awareness refutes the idea that suffering is necessary for enlightenment, stating that dissonance serves as a symptom and information provider. However, escapist behavior replaces corrective action, leading to increased blocked energy and potential catastrophe if initial impressions are denied. The intensity of emotions requires stronger stimuli to capture attention when natural sensitivity is numbed by denial strategies.

Dowsing and Automatic Writing

Lloyd K. from Vermont inquires about dowsing. Cosmic Awareness defines it broadly as any mechanism used to access Universal Consciousness, including dowsing rods, pendulums, Ouija boards, and even computers. These can serve as precursors to a more direct channel to Universal Consciousness and automatic writing. The use of a computer for automatic writing is encouraged, suggesting a quiet environment and allowing the mind to wander for direct intuitive communication.

Other Topics

The issue also briefly touches upon the use of Vanadyl Sulfate as a potential insulin replacement, cautioning about over-utilization and potential side effects on the kidneys. It also addresses the change to debit cards for Food Stamp recipients, stating there is no sinister intent and it appears to be a more efficient distribution system.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue revolve around the power of individual consciousness, the transformative nature of belief systems, and the importance of aligning with spiritual intention. Cosmic Awareness consistently emphasizes self-awareness, personal responsibility, and the ability of individuals to create their own reality by understanding and shifting their internal beliefs and emotional responses. The editorial stance is one of empowerment, encouraging readers to actively participate in their spiritual growth and to recognize the inherent creative power within themselves. There is a consistent message that external circumstances are often reflections of internal states and beliefs, and that true transformation comes from within.
